Re: Lejonklou Boazu Integrated Amp

I torqued the Jern 12ws today and it resulted in all over better musicality and powerful, full music. I went back to 1.3 and it is really better now than 1.1. The torque made the sound fuller and less lean. Overall more musical! Källa-Boazu-Jern 12 ws my best ever system. Music just flows.

Re: JERN Speakers

That sounds very interesting and like good therapy, Roots! I took your tip and torqued the 12ws. What a difference! I should have done it before. Everything got fuller and more powerful in a very musical way. I also feel strong as Jern (iron) now: ). Great intiative, Roots! ...Regarding 14ds vs 12ws...

Re: Lejonklou Boazu Integrated Amp

Hi Starsailor!
A speker matching list for the Boazu would be nice.
Here is my experience in order from best and down:
Jern 12WS (very good match)
Jern 14ds (very good match)
Neat Ioata Alpha (good match)
Guru q10 (good match)

Re: JERN Speakers

Great intiative, Roots! Thank you for the great description. Regarding 14ds vs 12ws I think it might also be a bit room dependent. In my bigger living room the 8 ohm, 88db 14 works a little better, because they fill the room easier. They get a bit strident in my smaller room, were the 12ws worked be...

Re: Vintage Amps

I think JERN speakers are great, especially the 12WS which seems to be the sweet spot imho, with the scanspeak tweeter. I now have the JERN 15H which is less direct in pace and rhythm but much more tuneful and very, very good bass for such a small speaker. I tried my old kans mk1 the other day and ...

Re: Vintage Amps

Interesting! I remember listening to a reaggie tune, It was a Swedish reaggie legend Peps Blodsband with ‘ Styr den up!’, a cover of Marleys Stir it up.( this was with Neat Iota Alpha). The Nait had a little bit more drive and rhythm in the beginning of the tune, but when it became more complex long...

Re: Vintage Amps

Interesting thread, Charlie Before Boazu I had 82-250 and a beautiful recapped Nait 1. I used Neat iota alpha, Nait 1 lp12 (aro, Armageddon, adikt) and a nice Lk Gaio 1. The sound was groovy and nice. Boazu beat it with out loosing rhythm. Then I paired it with Jern speakers. It reminded me of the e...

Sorry for being a bit slow, but switch hot and cold xlr means left output for right speaker and vice versa?

Re: Question about Rel B1

Dear Thomas
I know I should listen and tune myself, but I have a pair of bookshelf speakers (Jern 14) that rolls of at 90hz. Would you start the sub at around 70-60hz rather than 90 hz?

Re: JBL 308P and 708P

That is very interesting, Fredrik. I can here that is loads of potential in the 308 system, but the seamless music now is just better. Kikkin 3.0 sounds very interesting! I would be first on that list if it would be realized and would love to keep testing the 308-plywood further. I actually think th...

Re: JBL 308P and 708P

Quite strange but the Jern 12WS Boazu sounds more musical in my system. There is a musical flow and naturalness with this combo the 308 Kikkin does not have. I can listen for hours without fatigue and I am just drawn into the music. I wonder if the 308 would be better with a better pre, like Linn KK...

Re: Lejonklou Boazu Integrated Amp

I also went from Naim (15 years) to Lejonklou. I had a Nac 82, 250, hicap and a Nait 1 (very nice recapped one). Naim is very ‘Wow’ when you hear it, but Lejonklou follows the recording much more truthfully. The biggest difference for me after I sold my Naim gear was that I started to listen through...

Re: Cheap power strips for best sound.

Great thread, this. The forum is so nice with sudden discoveries of great discussions like this.
I have a question: Would a three-way Koppla be the most musical if you do not want to modify and you only need two sockets (Källa-Boazu)?
